I have never been one new years resolutions.
The idea that a new date on the calendar would suddenly make me change my ways just seemed illogical. Putting a future date on something that you can easily start doing when you have finally made up your mid to do it just seems lazy. “Hey, I’m going to start eating healthy and go to the gym on January 1st.”
If it really meant something to you then start doing it when you realize that it needs to be done. There’s a reason why gym memberships go through the roof in January and then get left unused after the months move along.
But, if you need something to get you through the post holiday months then I say so be it. I can’t tell you what makes you happy, just what seems pointless to me. Then again, I am sure I do a lot of things that you might find pointless too.
